These are great, and I like that you’ve got some libertarian fiction on there.

Folks who like Anthem should also check out “We” which was the very first book to be banned by Soviet Russia in 1921. Similar story about a totalitarian dystopia where the main character rebels out of love for another. It can be downloaded for free from the Mises website.

That and a bunch of other great free libertarian fiction are on this list of 23 free libertarian novels: https://www.artforliberty.com/best-free-libertarian-novels/
